Jia Zheng, the newly appointed secretary of the Ministry of Industry in the imperial court, is terrible.

First, this man who is nearly sixty years old and should have lived for decades in the six departments is a good age and qualifications to be a good person, and the doors of the six departments are clear.

Second, he was born in a noble family, and he was the biological father of the Empress Dowager Jia of the Imperial Court.

What's more, this is still the second uncle of Jia Lian, the prince of Rongguo, who has just broken up and came to be a scholar, and someone with a treacherous heart listens to it, and can't help but say that the position of this Shangshu is really stable, and the flattery on the pole is too late, how dare you embarrass behind your back?

It was the middle of May, and the fifteen dynasties in the palace would disperse.

Jia Zheng stepped out of the Taihe Palace across the Quartet, looked back at the palace slightly, and had his own temperament, so he stayed inexplicably for a while, and then followed the hundred officials down the steps and walked out.

"Old countryman live."

In the oblique stab, Dali Temple Qing Wu stepped forward with a shout.

Pulling Jia Zheng's robe, the protégé of the old head of the family talked in the middle of the steps in front of the Taihe Palace.

The armor soldiers in front of the guard hall didn't care, and the hundreds of officials on the left and right didn't dare to disturb, and they all lowered their heads and went down from the left and right sides of the steps.

After talking for a while, seeing that the sky was already bright in front of the palace, Wu Yongcai smiled and walked to the other end of the palace.

Seeing Wu Yong's figure go to the Qianqing Palace in the corner, Jia Zheng's tense face finally relaxed, and he moved down the steps on the left.

"This Wu is arrogant and arrogant, wanton and arrogant, and he really can't get along. I think that the children of my family have always had the most important rules, in the final analysis, it should be that he brought Jia Lian badly, so that the students inside and outside the city now point fingers at my family name and corrupt the style."

Knowing people and knowing faces but not knowing their hearts, Wu really shouldn't have been accepted into the curtain that day!

Jia Zheng secretly hated, and went down to the Taihedian Square, shook his head for a while, and walked outside.

After all, this is not the same as in the past, Lian Er started an incident, and he was promoted to the rank of official with the merit of supporting the new monarch, and now the Jia Party in the temple is huge.

Wu Yong is one of the thinkers, although Jia Zheng doesn't like it, but he can only make a false accusation, and he can't compete with him to ruin the Jia family's affairs.

When he was walking out, a person from behind him saw Jia Zheng in the distance, and hurriedly stepped forward to say hello.

"Jia Gongbu."

Jia Zheng looked back and saw that it was the king of Leshan County, and he was busy with the next ceremony.

"Eh-"

King Leshan held it and said with a smile: "Since they are relatives and friends, why should the Ministry of Industry see outside?"

Jia Zhengyu laughed, and after giving in to the king of Leshan County, he went out to Taihe Gate together.

The two families are indeed old friends, when the old lady of the Jia family celebrated his 80th birthday, the king of Leshan County came to celebrate his birthday in person.

"Why did the prince stay behind for so long today?"

"Jia Gongbu doesn't know, Xiao Wang is not good at civil and military, and some chores can only be taken to the palace to make it difficult for His Majesty, so I have come to this time."

"Lord Wang, please put away your words, since the Du Ministry of Works, who is better to call themselves the Ministry of Works?"

"My lord's words are really reasonable."

While the two were chatting, they came out from the Taihe Gate Tower.

King Leshan asked with a smile, "I heard that there is a girl in your family who has been out of the pavilion recently?"

Jia Zheng said: "The prince is well-informed, and he is the eldest daughter of my brother Jia Yu, the hereditary first-class general of the former Rongfu, and the younger sister of Jia Lian, the current Duke of Rongguo, known as the second girl. The old lady above is too old, and the grandchildren below them keep filial piety for a year, and they are not young, and they are already in their two decades, and they are married to the brother of Gui Qi, the leader of the Yulin Camp in the palace, and they are older than others. Because the two families have always been in contact, it is considered to be close to each other, and it is set for the beginning of June."

"Then I'm going to ask for a wedding card."

After the king of Leshan County finished speaking, he clasped his palms together and smiled: "I have heard of the Gui family brother, the older one has always been heroic, and he is very similar to the grandfather of your family. The young one, whose nickname is 'Hua Xiaomei', is really weak, like a daughter who has been born into a boy, and this couple will get along well in the future."

Speaking of her daughter's boys, this

words, Jia Zheng couldn't help but think of his own Jia Baoyu.

After secretly scolding the man for two sentences, Jia Zheng said again: "The prince doesn't know, the girl in my family is not a spoiled bully person, she has been raised by the old lady above since she was a child, she should be the most polite, how can she take advantage of the eldest brother's power to do wrong?"

King Leshan hurriedly said, "Complain that I made the wrong thing, and only care about laughing."

Jia Zheng's face softened slightly, and he waved his hand again and again to uncover the stubble.

It was already scheduled to go to beg for a cup of wine in June, and the king of Leshan asked again, "Xiao Wang heard that the boss also has a daughter to be married in his family?"

Jia Zheng said: "This matter is also making people anxious, and family affairs are not easy to discuss."

Of course, the third girl is not easy to discuss in the spring, after all, she is the sister-in-law of the deceased Queen Mother, who dares to ask for marriage?

While talking, the two had already arrived at the Jinshui Bridge.

The king of Leshan County has long had a heart, and he heard that the girl in Jia Zheng's family has not yet decided to marry, where will he miss it.

"There is a boy in Xiao Wang's family who is not successful, nearly twenty years old, and it was not easy to ask for a show of fame, but he failed in the previous imperial examination, I advise him to start a family first, and then keep the family's job with peace of mind. The kid looks good, and Xiao Wang will take him to visit the house one day and ask the old man to palm his eyes?"

The words of the king of Leshan County are naturally to ask for the third girl in his house to explore the spring.

Now that Jia Men is prosperous, Jia Zheng is a faction of his own, a serious member of the court, with an excellent reputation, and less involved than the Rong Mansion, where to find such a good relative?

Jia Zheng heard that the son of the king of Leshan County was a talent at a young age, and he was already overjoyed, so how could he disagree with this.

It's just that as the party being asked to marry, he still has to be more or less reserved as usual.

Jia Zheng bowed his head slightly and said: "How to look is secondary, there are many people like us who are outside the gold and jade, and the people who are defeated in them have to look at their character and talent, which is the foundation of their lifelong life."

King Leshan smiled and said, "That's what the old man said."

That's how the matter of the marriage is decided.

Coming down to the Jinshui Bridge, the king of Leshan County restrained his smile slightly.

Private matters are decided once they are settled, but official affairs are difficult to handle.

King Leshan couldn't help but sigh slightly.

Jia Zheng hurriedly came to inquire about the reason, and expected that he would not ruin his relatives as soon as he said it verbally?

The king of Leshan County sighed: "Don't hide it from you, my lord, it was the imperial court that commissioned me to preside over the epidemic inside and outside the Jingshi, seeing that the hot summer was coming, but there was little progress, so I went to the palace to be blamed, and I came out late."

Jia Zheng was surprised: "I heard that there are some epidemics in the northern suburbs, but it is so tricky?"

King Leshan said: "The old man is wrong, the epidemic is not an ordinary epidemic, it is some source. Since last year, there has been a series of wars in the west of the imperial court, and the logistics are not good, and countless people along the road have either escaped labor and conscription, or evaded money, food, and taxes, and turned into displaced people."

Jia Zheng lamented: "If this is the case, it turns out that the displaced people have left their hometowns and brought the epidemic to the capital?"

The king of Leshan County said: "It is precisely that there are few people who are taken in by the government along the way, and this year 50,000 or 60,000 displaced people have been driven to the outskirts of Beijing to beg for food, blocking the waterways, so that the epidemic has risen.

Jia Zheng sighed: "It's a pity that these people have come here because of the important affairs of the imperial court, and the Ministry of Industry will definitely do its best to settle the displaced people on the prince's case."

The king of Leshan County was overjoyed when he heard this, and he was about to speak, but he saw that their respective sedan chairs had been carried and invited the two adults to take the sedan chair.

There is no time to lose.

Originally, many words in the belly were unbearable, and the king of Leshan County only waved his hand to temporarily retreat from the sedan chair on both sides, and then came to talk to Jia Zheng.

"Xiao Wang is sad to see tens of thousands of people begging for food at the feet of the Son of Heaven, let alone the old man who has always been a gentleman? The imperial court for the conquest of the West Sea, the western provinces of the tax and labor are indeed heavy, it is said that the Qin sent to kill nearly 100 corrupt officials and corrupt officials, but there is no effect, but it is to cause the upper and lower levels to suffer unspeakably, so that the displaced people can gather in the capital. In order to cure the fundamentals, according to Xiao Wang's shallow opinion, it is better to ...... Strike the army?"

While speaking, he observed Jia Zheng's complexion with his spare eyes

。

Seeing that there was a sad look on his face, the king of Leshan County was determined in his heart.

Jia Zhengdao: "The sword and soldiers are together, the government and the opposition are turbulent, and they know the truth. It's just that the West Sea Yanzi has been fighting for nearly two years, and the imperial court has spent countless people's and material resources, so how can it be so good that all the achievements have been wasted?"

King Leshan said with a smile: "This matter is just in time, the front palace has already received a letter of invitation from Fanbang, but it is only stopped by Rongguo Gong, and there is no decision yet. When the old man arrived at the yamen, he just looked for today's mansion newspaper and knew that what Xiao Wang said was true."

It's hard to say more, otherwise it seems to be provoking the intimacy of uncles and nephews.

After saying a word, King Leshan County arched his hand, turned around and went to his sedan chair first.

Jia Zheng also went in a sedan chair, and he had a headache for these things.

With a lot of worries, Jia Zheng, who has always been diligent since taking office in the Ministry of Industry, scattered early today, and returned home before dusk in the afternoon.

At that time, the Allure Bofu is now the Shangshu Mansion of the Ministry of Industry.

Jia Zheng had already read the newspaper and knew that the Hu people along the West Sea could not defeat Duan Huangui, and he suffered a big defeat this year, so he sent a letter to beg for peace and ask to marry the daughter of the office.

If it can really adapt to the situation, it is also wonderful for the court to accept this vassal with peace affairs.

But the coach Duan Huangui also came over, since Chen asked the DPRK not to forget the story of "Xiyang", perennial confrontation, the enemy army is tired, next year today, will be able to kill his tribe, exterminate his species.
